The current project will focus on exploring a variety of cultures. The aim is to raise students’ awareness about the cultural peculiarities of other European partners in terms of language, customs and traditions and develop tolerance towards people with special needs as well as rediscover their own cultural roots.

Regional cultural conditions at home and in the partner-regions should be recognized as an important component for the development of personality in addition to the European and global current cultural norms and appreciated in other regions.

We expect our students to develop multiculturalism and multilingualism in a broader European context and understand that the variety of European languages and cultures is a value not an obstacle to live together in Europe. They will also learn and explore some basics of the partners’ language as well as their social customs in order to act appropriately when meeting other cultures and avoid misunderstandings.

One top of the project are International Festivals at several partnerschools where our pupils not only will “be with the others”, but above all they will “be the others”, in the sense that they will have the chance to dance, sing, play sports as if they were natives of the partner countries and interpret the traditional references of their counterparts.
